While the default "Name" field in Webflow doesn't offer options for setting minimum and maximum character counts, there are a few workarounds you can use to limit the character count for blog titles and prevent breaking the UI. Here are a couple of options for you to consider:
1. Custom Code Solution:
You can achieve this by using some custom code in conjunction with a text input field. Follow these steps:
a. Add a text input field to your blog post template or editor.
b. Give the input field a unique class or ID for styling and targeting purposes.
c. In the Page Settings of your blog template or editor, go to the Custom Code tab.
d. Insert the following JavaScript code into the head section of the page:
```javascript
```
Make sure to replace "your-input-field-id" with the actual ID or class of your input field.
2. CMS Collection Field:
If you're using a CMS Collection to manage your blog posts, you can add a plain text field specifically for the blog post title. Then, in the collection settings, you can set the maximum character limit for that field. Follow these steps:
a. Go to the Editor settings of your blog post collection.
b. Create a new plain text field for the blog post title.
c. In the field settings, set the maximum character limit to your desired value.
d. Use this new field for displaying the blog title in your templates instead of the default "Name" field.
By using this approach, you'll have precise control over the character count for blog titles, and Webflow will automatically validate and enforce the character limit for you.
Whichever approach you choose, remember to consider the implications on the user experience and ensure your design accommodates variations in title length.
